@schnee,

i verify that with the provided git, mjpg-streamer works fine! I wish i had more than one camera to test it. Thanks very much for the info!

Regarding bluetooth, I was able to get a USB BT adapter working but unfortunately the bluetooth module on my Atheros model AR5B225 combo wifi / bluetooth card is not enabling. The modules load - Ath3k, btusb, etc but when I do a hcitool dev it does not indicate a device. I also tried an Intel Centrino 300M Wireless-N 2230 combo wifi/bt card and had the same result. From research, these types of cards require some special blacklisting and other firmware tweaks to initialize the BT side and those are beyond my skillset so what I am saying is that it may work but I haven't figured out how yet. Thankful though that you were able to get conventional bluetooth adapters to work wth Oxnas now :)

Yes, it is normal. I've switched back to building kernel with Debian make-kpkg. This is just a warning about it can't find the some symbolic link to build directories, which does not apply when we install kernel.

Thanks for reporting your finding! Since I am at building the Pogo V3 kernel to include pNFS, I've found some other kernel configs that we are lacking comparing to the Kirkwood kernel. I will update it and release a 4.0.0-tld-2 version :) so if you can find out if the PCIe card BT issue needs kernel config tweak, please let me know.

I'll see what I can find out. I'm not too bummed because from my reading I know people have issues with these cards on mainline distributions on Intel platforms and if that is the case then supporting on something that is a sideline to the mainline is bound to be more problematic. Like tearing down a wall, it's sometimes one brick at a time.

Looks like there are changes in many RT devices drivers in this kernel, too! affected: Kirkwood iConnect wifi (rt2x00). So I would not be surprised to find Atheros to have new regression either.

Hi, Bodhi - Thanks so much for your work on Pogoplugs! I got a BIZ02 from Adorama about a week ago and it turned out to be what I think is a P01. It's definitely a V3 Oxnas with WiFi. I upgraded the U-Boot and installed 4.0 kernel per your instructions. I think I somewhat honked up the original firmware (had to direct connect SATA drive to get it sorted) - maybe I'll look into that more later. The Pogoplug works great, including the WiFi!

My main question is re: Codepage 437. I have an older MyBook that has a VFAT partition. It mounts fine on my other Debian boxes, but I can't get it to mount on the Pogoplug. Do I need to recompile the kernel, or can I just add a module? I understand that I should use the "config" file in your tarball, but I need to download the kernel sources directly - is that correct?

Glad to hear this! If you could, please post your wifi setup. i..e. content of /etc/network/interfaces, or anything that you did to use the stock wifi card on this box here. It would help others to clarify whether stock wifi is working on this rootfs, and see how it can be done.

You don't need to compile. I'll will include it all the code pages in the next release, but in the mean time I will post this module so you can try.

The WiFi module is the AzureWave with RT3090 chip ( I had to look when I opened the box to SATA boot).
I'm attaching output from "dmesg" in case it's useful for someone else to look at for troubleshooting.

I'll look forward to seeing the nls module when you have time to post it!
